Include Files

The neuray API is based on and uses the base API and the math API.

The base API provides basic types, functions on them, assertions, and configurations. The math API provides vector, matrix, bbox, and color classes and math functions.

The neuray API contains the base API and math API include files as well. The mi/base.h include file and all include files in the mi/base/ subdirectory are from the base API. The mi/math.h include file and all include files in the mi/math/ subdirectory are from the math API. The mi/neuraylib.h include file and all include files in the mi/neuraylib/ subdirectory are from the neuray API.

The neuray API offers two groups of include files. One group contains the mi/neuraylib.h , mi/math.h , and mi/base.h include files, which provide the full functionality of the neuray API, the math API, and the base API, respectively. The other group consists of several include files named mi/neuraylib/<functional-name>.h, which provide individual parts of the neuray API grouped by functionality, mi/math/<functional-name>.h, which provide individual parts of the math API grouped by functionality, and mi/base/<functional-name>.h, which provide individual parts of the base API grouped by functionality. The files of the first group, mi/neuraylib.h , mi/math.h , and mi/base.h , include all relevant files of the second group.

See Base API Include Files for the individual base API include files grouped by compoment.

See Math API Include Files for the individual math API include files grouped by compoment.

Include files are self-contained. Internal dependencies are resolved automatically. As a consequence, their inclusion is order independent.

There may be include files that are not documented below. They are automatically included if needed and their independent use is not supported. Their naming and organization might change in the future.
